Are you sad because you wanted to do NaPo this year, but 1)forgot, 2)were otherwise occupied on the 1st, 3)came down with the flu at a very inconvenient time, 4)were new to PFFA and the thought of writing a poem a day for 30 days scared you to death, but now you wish you had, 5)fill in the blank?
Well, we have good news. We're extending the start of NaPo to Thursday, April 8 - a period of grace for those of you who fit any or all or none of the above. For future NaPo's, new members without a PFFA history will be required to start on April 1; PFFA veterans will be get a grace period. That will allow familiar faces to jump in, while keeping trolls out - one of the original rationales for the strict deadline policy.
So, jump on in! Join us! The NaPo water's fine!
Donner for the mods
P.S. Now, in the spirit of good will, those of you who take advantage of the reprieve might think about extending your NaPo one week past April 30. (All the more pennies to give to PFFA to thank Béla for making all this madness possible.)
